SOMETHING HAS CLICKED!

Today will be Day 8 of Insanity and I still can't believe I've stuck with it. I've started and stopped Insanity twice before and both times I quit on Day 2, well I'm not even sure I made it to Day 2 the first time I did it. I remember giving up during the warm up! BUT this time I made a COMMITTMENT to myself, my brother-in-law and my coach that I would do Insanity and stick with it. Now don't get me wrong- I can't make it through the entire workouts- I rest a lot but except for one dvd that made me cry UNCLE and turn it off with 14 mins. left (Pure Cardio) I have done my best with each and every workout.

Along with doing Insanity I also upgraded my Team Beachbody membership and am following the meal plan. I'm also using Shakeology once a day.  I started using it for breakfast but switch over to using it for dinner this week. I have to say I like it for dinner. I don't feel like I've eaten a heavy meal, I go to bed with a much lighter stomach and no heartburn. I'm down 3lbs so far this week and a total of 5.8lbs in a week & 1/2. Not too shabby!

So what has clicked? I'm not sure but I FEEL like I can honestly keep the 60 day committment with Insanity and I'm excited to see what my 30 day progress will be. I also actually stop and think about what I'm about to eat, if it's off the meal plan, instead of just mindlessly chowing down on whatever is handy. I also decided to add a 20 min. workout at lunchtime instead of just sitting at my desk now. Yesterday was 2 10 Min. Trainers (Lower Body & Abs) and today was 20 min. Turbo Jam.

I have a goal of 30lbs. lost by Sept. 30th when I head to Vegas. It's a goal I'm feeling like I'm going to accomplish this time and I'm going to do EVERYTHING I possibly can to reach that goal.  Eating right, exercising daily, drinking water and most of all believing in myself- no negative self-talk and no self-sabotage- I CAN AND WILL DO THIS!

My girlfriend asked me "What did you do with my friend Cheryl?" and I had to laugh- after so many times starting, stopping and failing- her friend Cheryl feels that SOMETHING HAS CLICKED- and it's all good!
